This assumes Wrap is banned, keep in mind. Some glimpses there, although apparently the list assumed Wrap was banned. It's a fun meta until Dragonite pops out. Primarily aimed at OU Play, but still useful nontheless. It can get a little weird with things like Burn/Paralysis Stat Drop Stacking, but it's quite simple in context. This is by far one of the most complicated metagames, and you should look into the mechanics if possible. Honestly, Smogon's first webzines were pretty mediocre (as is their website). This gives Smogon Tournament Coverage, which isn't exceptionally well written or anything. But it has some info in there, use when you're having a case of burnout. This is a much more casual thing, more for community stuff than competitive play. Very useful, moreso than The Smog to some degree. Use the Tags to check for Past Gens, but it can also be used for current metas too. Use for context in older metagames if need-be.
Old Webzine relating to Smogon during DPP OU, and I believe it went into BW2 OU at some point. Pannenkoek for Gens 1-2, contributes to Pokemon Showdown's legacy tiers a lot. In depth legacy analysis of Pokemon from Gens 1-6 atm. Gives a nice table on the attacking types. Very good in depth explanation of stat mechanics along with other tidbits. Most notable application is playing Poke Cup (AKA Nintendo Cup) in Pokemon Stadium and Pokemon Stadium 2. Very useful website for Nintendo Cup Play. I HIGHLY recommend using Starmie on almost every team you make, this Pokemon is amazing in Pre-Split. Smeargle has a rough history, and has impacted the metagame significantly. Very useful to keep around as a SpinBlocker and Anti-Lead, especially in ADV OU. Don't sleep on this article.Ī Flying Press Article on Gengar's Competitive History. One of the biggest threats in Pre-Split, Zapdos in generally should be researched in detail. Useful for playing Stadium and Stadium 2's cups that require low leveled Pokemon. Very well known for where Rage Mechanics were found. Maybe make RMT Threads here? Inactive post-wise, but very useful.Ĭrystal_ posts here a lot. Still extremely useful if you're getting into it all though.Ĭopy the Pastebin Links for when you're thinking about building off a sample team. This gives you some amazing pointers for finding resources, pity they didn't link the most important ones directly. Note that it is best to deviate from the sample sets so your team isn't predictable as all hell. This is Smogon's way of compiling Pokemon Analysis's, which is excellent for those looking into team building. Sufficient for general play.ĭiscuss Past Gens in live chat here. It's a touch outdated but nonetheless useful knowledge. Outlines Official Metagames sanctioned by Nintendo, from Nintendo Cup 1997 to VGC 2012. Wouldn't it be possible to take into account whether a team features weather setters when attributing certain Pokémon's abilities ? I'm actually pretty sure I've read somewhere that it's already the case, but maybe only in newer gens, though it would make sense even up to gen 3, as Kyogre, Groudon, Ttar, Swift Swim, Chlorophyll, and Sand Veil exist in that gen too.These are resources that apply to most if not all generations this group is about. (Dark Pulse listed as a move is because of a Zoroark on my team, which was already revealed and KOed, which I guess is kind of an issue too, though it feels less problematic).įinally, this is from a turn when my opponent revealed a Tentacruel alongside its Kyogre, and said Tentacruel didn't have Rain Dish. Shouldn't a Pokémon with only Foul Play as an attacking move have its attack reduced to the max for Foul Play- and confusion-related reasons, just like specially-attacking Pokémon ? Maybe I'm missing a mechanic here, but it seems to me that Murkrow here will never get to actually use its attack stat. That said, I don't know if it's a known issue (and if that's the case, sorry for brining it up again), or if it affects other abilities introduced in gen 4 (Lugia didn't have Multiscale listed so it probably doesn't affect anything post-gen 4). This one actually seems to be a bug : Snow Cloak shouldn't be listed as an ability when it's gen 3.
However, considering Furret's abysmal stats, D-E is probably better when not using Reversal, but I don't know if this kind of condition can be easily implemented. Wouldn't Return be more relevant than Double-Edge on such a set ? I get it doesn't have Endure, but the point still seems to try to get to low HP with subs and then "sweep" from there. Mostly not bugs, just choices that I think are not the best ones, but it's clearly open to discussion.īelow is a Furret set with Reversal. Hello, I have a few questions regarding some stuff I thought were somewhat weird.
